I know this is an unpopular opinion, but I've watched the footage of Ashli Babbit being shot, and the GUN DOES NOT LINE UP. If you draw a straight line along the axis of the gun, even accounting for some curving from perspective, the gun would've hit her much lower than the neck. The whole scene never felt right.
Just remember who she was surrounded by - undercover Antifa.
Yeah, well considering there's currently an even split of upvotes and downvotes, I guess I should "cure" my previous statement and say "controversial opinion"
I'm gonna dig that hole a bit deeper and say:
Many conservatives want to say Ashli was shot because they want their own Floyd, an injustice to rally around. I think she was shot because the media wanted us to have our own "Floyd". They wanted us to react hyper-negatively and get more violent so they had justification for a larger crackdown - but the problem is we're both more controlled and more cowardly/aware of the government clapback that would happen if we were to chimp out over her death. That didn't stop them from trying though.

That's a very popular opinion.
Totally fake.
